cell array saved in appdata

Is there a way to directly access and edit specific cells in a cell array using appdata?

setappdata(gcf, 'pipe_system', cell(10));

I would like to update specific cells in 'pipe_system'

setappdata(gcf, 'pipe_system{1,1}', cell(10));

I tried using this but it says 'pipe_system{1,1}' is an invalid field name.

There is no magic access. Keep it simple:

data = cell(10,10);
setappdata(gcf, 'pipe_system', data);
...
data = getappdata(gcf, 'pipe_system');
data{1,1} = rand;
setappdata(gcf, 'pipe_system', data);

This might look less convenient, but it is direct and efficient.

Works perfect. Thank you.
